After a recommendation on here I just bought a Majority Edington radio. Its very good, and very small, not battery but USB rechargeable. Sound quality is excellent . I have to recharge once in 48 hours so a bit heavy on battery use , but with a decent power bank it charges very quickly. Literally dozens of channels to choose from and all clear as a bell . Mine was £39.

I have a few DAB radio`s and one is the Original Roberts Play I bought it because my fav stations mainly are only on DAB+ now
and my old Pure Move cant receive them I dont think there is much difference between the original Roberts Play that I have and the 10.20,etc that mainly seems cosmetic ? maybe improved battery life I dont know ?
anyway its been faultless great reception and sound and good battery life

I have 2 of these they last 25 hours each but I've now found from temu a multi charger with different cables attached to it and recharge them from my power banks.

XDRV1BTDB Portable DAB+/FM Radio - Black
Great radio but pricey but at least it doesn't need batteries

Has anyone tried the i box spectrum ?
I've seen these for £30 dab+, I think uk made might be wrong.

I've got a I-box barrel, brilliant little thing, size of a coffee mug, lithium battery that you can charge at home and get 10 hours of charge. Charges via USB off a powerbank if needed. Bluetooth, British company yes, not sure about where its actually made though.

Sound quality is brilliant, real stereo sound. Can't be doing with them tinny sounding radios that music sounds awful on. This barrel dab is the business

After reading this and watching a couple of videos on YouTube I have just ordered one
Off Amazon. Current price is £39.99. In one of the videos you are given a 30%
Discount code which is still currently valid, the code is Digital R30.

You won't be disappointed with it, good quality sound. I originally brought it solely for fishing but because of the sound quality I use it in the house aswell 👍
